Now that you are through the inspection and appraisal process, it’s time to hire movers and start packing!

Now that you have completed the inspection and appraisal process, it's time to hire movers and start packing! Call now to get moving estimates and secure a mover, as they often get booked up weeks in advance.  Ask me for an updated list of recommended movers!

Regardless of the mover you choose, request wardrobe boxes for your hanging clothes. This allows for a seamless transition without the hassle of removing and packing items individually. Just grab the hangers and hang the items back up at your new home.

Moving Supplies
Start collecting boxes and packing materials. Look for free boxes on Nextdoor or Facebook Marketplace, or head to U-Haul and Uline for moving supplies.

Pets
To ease your pets' stress, consider having them stay with a friend or in daycare while you move and settle into your new place.

Items to Leave
Please leave any wall-mounted fixtures such as shelving, TV Mounts, curtain rods, and blinds. Everything else should be taken with you. If you are unsure, feel free to ask us!
